We had some external harddrives for the 380Z server we had at the
school I went to. They where in the same case as a 380Z but they where
white (same cream colour as the newer 480Z)  and the reset button was
just a power light. Inside was 2 ST225N's with 2 xebec boards. I'm not
sure if this was an original spec though. The drives could of been
upgraded, they where the same as they used in the Nimbus.
